One thing that Bjarn Riis has done for CSC is to really improve the teams time trialing abilities. It has paid off for them in a big way the past two weeks. Fabian Cancellara showed his abilities last week at Paris-Roubaix as he powered off the front with 19km to go and then Frank Schleck did the same this week at the Amstel Gold with 10km to go.
It's funny but I don't know that I've ever really thought of time trialing abilities being a help in winning anything but time trials. I suppose I still have a lot to learn as a cycling fan.
